JustInFudge Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Best part is what are the odds that Idzik and Rex would've drafted Beckham? He would've been taken #1 had teams known then what they know now. 11 teams passed on him. No way the Jets would've been smart enough to take him--the first offensive first rounder since sanchez--under rexidzik FWIW - I had a buddy who was a scout for the Jags. Idzik hired him and he covered the SouthEast. He claimed the Jets loved him and he was the pick if he was on the board. The Jets were supposedly very high on him. I wasn't a huge fan. There is something about him that I didn't like coming out of LSU. It doesn't have to do with production or ability so much as style. For instance, my favorite RB is Jonathan Stewart. That certainly does not mean I think he is the best RB. I really didn't catch many Giants games this year. I wonder how much differently I will feel about Beckham after watching him in the NFL a bit. I was higher on Landry as a pure WR. Whenever LSU needed a play, Landry was their guy. Beckham was the versatility guy, big play, kick offs etc. Funny how that switched in the NFL. Both looks like studs, Beckham looking like a top 5 WR in the league. How LSU you ever lost a game with Mettenberger, Landry, Beckham and Hill is astonishing. lol.

Just like the story about how Bradway was "pounding the table for Rus Wilson" came out... after Rus Wilson became a star and Bradway was looking for another job. The only good pick during Idzik's tenure (Richardson) had Rex's fingerprints all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgb Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Is it safe to say Idzik was one of the worst GM hires, ever? He was certainly one of the worst talent evaluators. I cannot call him the worst ever because at least he didn't keep us in or create future cap hell; not that he could have given the situation when he arrived. He was a good sacrificial lamb to clean up from the Tannenbaum orgy years... if only he had drafted average or better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanInDenver Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 So Giants had one thing going for them and now even that is jinxed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Harper Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 If a guy has a season for the ages (which it really was) how could he be considered a "bust," even if he is hit by a truck tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
